[santacruzgalaxy-list] Fwd: new Grackle APIs available

[Ji-hoon Kim]

Dear AGORA members,

I am forwarding the recent updates from the Grackle group (attached below).  This might interest many of you who want to include the Grackle chemistry and cooling library in your code, for AGORA simulations or not.  

Sincerely,
Ji-hoon

> I wanted to make everyone aware of some recent developments with the Grackle.  Recently, the main user-facing Grackle functions were rewritten to be pure C instead of C++.  This has made it much simpler to create interfaces for simulation codes written in C and Fortran.  In fact, a number of new working examples have been added displaying C and Fortran interfaces.  All of these new efforts have been put into an open pull request which can be viewed here:
> https://bitbucket.org/grackle/grackle/pull-request/2/wip-moving-chemistry_data-structure-into/diff
> 
> Feedback on this PR would be most welcome.  A set of functions has been added that allows the users to initialize and call Grackle functions without ever having to deal with the chemistry data and units structs.  It would be particularly useful to get feedback on those.
> 
> This also means that the original API from version 1.0 has changed.  Because of this, I think that once this PR is accepted and documentation has been fixed up, a 2.0 release is probably a good idea.  Anyway, comments on the PR or anything I've laid out here is definitely encouraged.

> Also, as a reminder, the official Grackle repo is now located at
> https://bitbucket.org/grackle/grackle
> so make sure to fork that and not the old one.
